She Is A CEO

“Esmae, I’m in prison now. I can’t get rid of the thorns all over my body. I have to lie to everyone, even Teddy. But to you, I don’t want to. I want you to know that I’ve always loved Arthur. I won’t change now, and I won’t change in the future. This is my heart, and you have been forcing me to kill it. This is very painful. It’s really painful.”

For the first time, Lucia was blandly confessing to Esmae the harm she had done to her, not because she wanted Esmae to feel guilty about it, but because she wanted to tell her that it was impossible for her to forget Arthur!

Esmae glared at Lucia, and was speechless with anger.

Perhaps it was true that she had repressed herself for too long in front of Esmae, and Lucia had lost her composure when she complained,

“Shouldn’t you be the one who know how much one loves someone? If you can forget your love for someone so easily, why do you have to bear a grudge against Edwin and Sophie for so many years? Isn’t it because you can’t forget him…”

Pow! A slap sounded, and Lucia was slapped in the face, stopping her voice.

Esmae looked at Lucia’s fair face and saw her palm print. She felt sorry for Lucia, but she didn’t regret the slap. She withdrew her hand and reprimanded her sternly,

“What happened between me and Edwin, Sophie, is not for you to judge! How can you understand the hardships and suffering of my years! I hate them not because I can’t get Edwin out of my head, but because they deserve to pay for what they’ve done. Why should I forgive them?”

Stubbornly not lifting her hand to touch her stinging cheek, Lucia turned back to look at Esmae and insisted,

“But Esmae … People are people, because they know how to be grateful, polite, can forget. I mean, everyone is gonna do anything wrong in their life. Even you do things wrong, right? People can have a bond with each other because they get along with each other through mistakes and forgiveness. It’s not right for Edwin and Sophie to hide their relationship from you, but their original intention was not to hurt you, or even your family. Sophie has been looking for you for decades and carrying the guilt for decades. Isn’t that enough?”
